Filebeat 6.5.0 - Error: unknown command "enroll" for "filebeat"

Testing new Beats central management and the 6.5.0 version of filebeat (downloaded today) states that "enroll" is an unknown command for filebeat.

C:\beats\filebeat-6.5.0-windows-x86_64>filebeat.exe enroll
Error: unknown command "enroll" for "filebeat"
Run 'filebeat --help' for usage.

C:\beats\filebeat-6.5.0-windows-x86_64>filebeat version
filebeat version 6.5.0 (amd64), libbeat 6.5.0 [ff5b9b3db49856a25b5eda133b6997f2157a4910 built 2018-11-09 17:54:46 +0000 UTC]

Tried the Linux agent and it does have the "enroll" option for filebeat. Could the above error only be from the Windows version? Am I missing something?

Hi @AndrewMcQ,

Thank you for reporting back! I'm wondering, what version of Filebeat did you download? Can you share the URL?

Best regards

The win 64bit

This seems to be an issue in our packaging, I've opened https://github.com/elastic/beats/issues/9096 to research and fixing it.

I am also having this issue. glad to see it's not just me :slight_smile:

We have fixed this issue, next release (6.5.1, to be released soon) will include the fix.
